Spear phishing protection

Protect your users with superior spear phishing protection.

As more and more organizations are experiencing advanced targeted attacks, companies everywhere are seeking the most effective forms of spear phishing protection.

Spear phishing attacks trick users into revealing confidential information by sending an email that appears to come from a trusted source – a colleague, a supervisor or the finance or HR department. Hackers may include information in the subject line or content that shows knowledge of a user's company or industry. On highly targeted attacks, hackers may even use information gleaned from social media accounts to gain the user's trust before asking for sensitive data, credentials or financial transfers, as is the case in a wire transfer phishingattack.

1To improve spear phishing protection, many organizations have attempted to educate users about the dangers of these emails, but nearly one-quarter of all phishing-based messages are still opened. And with more than 90% of all hacking attacks today starting with a phishing or spear phishing email, it's clear that companies require superior spear phishing protection to safeguard users, revenue and reputation.
